Meet Nico—45 pounds of cuddly yellow glitter! ✨💛

Nico came to us with his three sisters, as you probably guessed… strays. All four arrived skin and bones and, understandably, a little unsure of humans. Thankfully, it didn’t take long for Nico and his sisters to settle in, discover that people are pretty wonderful, and start acting like the happy, goofy puppies they are.

Nico is fully potty trained and uses the doggy door like a pro. He’s still working on his leash skills, but in every other respect, he is a very typical, lovable 6-month-old Labrador.

He loves playing with his foster siblings, LOVES the water, and fetch is quickly becoming one of his favorite games.

Nico has not been around children or cats in his foster home, so we don’t know how he would do with either. As with any young dog, proper introductions, supervision, patience, and giving everyone time to adjust are important.

What Nico really needs is a family who understands that 6 months is still very much puppyhood. Everything is new, and he will need some patience, guidance, consistency, and confidence-building as he continues to learn about the world.

Give him those things, and we have no doubt this sweet boy is going to shine. 🌟

If Nico sounds like he might be the perfect addition to your family, please fill out an online adoption application.
🐾 Nico is ready to find his forever family! 💛
